Maybe a new album this year, lambs…

The Stereogum blog that reviews every US #1 just got to We Belong Together…

The Number Ones: Mariah Carey’s “We Belong Together”

In The Number Ones, I’m reviewing every single #1 single in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, starting with the chart’s beginning, in 1958, and working my way up into the present.

Everybody's been talking about the Rolling Stones 100 best singers of all time. They put Mariah at #5, Whitney #3, and Aretha #1.

And omitted Celine altogether

And omitted Celine altogether

I just checked and it's actually a 200 singers list Even fiercely heterosexual Sylvester or Brandy made the chart, poor Celine.

 

[POP!]

Taylor Swift and Rihanna officially better singers than Celine.

Beyonce being top ten is also... a choice.

Nobody listens to Taylor Swift and goes omg that's an amazing voice It's all about ARTISTRY with her! Not only they missed Celine but they also missed Amy Winehouse?
Rolling Stone ain't shit, to be honest!

 

[Diddy]

Nobody listens to Taylor Swift and goes omg that's an amazing voice It's all about ARTISTRY with her!

I’m sure I listen for that either! And I hate her lyrics.

Why DO I still listen to her?!

She’s always had such a great attitude.

The lambs seem pleased about this, so... good?

(A sped up version of) It’s A Wrap is starting to take off on TikTok with people doing this dance:

And now Don't Forget About Us, which the reviewer is actually a lot kinder to than I would have expected.

Is the sped up songs thing some copyright issue until the artists releases one itself?

 

[dUb]

 

[K.C.]

I love that TikTok went with an obscure deep cut. I love ISSA WRAP

 

[straightorbroken]

I love the emergency of having a tik tok trend alert to quickly make some calls to produce a 17 second clip for the socials starring whatever staff were on that time of day

 

[dUb]

 

[Berly]

But what does it all mean, Basil?

Does she need to release a sped up version? Why isn’t it showing in her top 5 popular songs on Spotify? Will she chart?

 

[dUb]

Haven’t a clue babes

Meanwhile this is insane

 

[POP!]

This one is also interesting...

 

[Berly]

 

[POP!]

not the sped up!

 

[Pipo]

this sped up mumbo jumbo needs to DIE

 

[Pipo]

what a missed opportunity to name this It's A Wrap (Original 2010 Album Version)

 

[Loufoque]

I've never been a fan of It's A Wrap, but I guess she's a viral a hit, she's been around a long time and I'm happy for her

But seriously, when is Triumphant (Get 'Em) going to have its viral moment?

 

[POP!]

 

[K.C.]

I love how camp it is

"Boy let me go
You gonna wake my neighbors, get away from my door"

 

[Pipo]

I've never been a big fan of It's A Wrap cause it's one of those songs where I can't tell the bridge or the chorus apart, just a bunch of Mariah-esque quirky lyrics, but lately I've given it a chance due to it being a potential INFECTIOUS VIRAL hit and it's a vibe

Not DOTS INSTEAD OF COMMAS IN NUMBERS

 

[Sheena]

It’ll be a non English speaker. Most of the world uses them in that way.

[dUb]

Also for whatever THIS is worth...

 

[dUb]

I sang a bit of It's A Wrap for my 12yo niece and 17yo nephew and they recognised it instantly

Had no idea who it was by though

 

[Pipo]

I am jumping on the tiktokariah wagon and loving It's a Wrap too but my GOD I can't get my head around the fact that it sounds like there's no chorus whatsoever

 

[K.C.]

Queen Phoebe is the latest to give us her interpretation

 

[funky]

Also for whatever THIS is worth...

Im so glad it’s Mariah’s official spokesperson we’ll be hearing from
